Navigate Your Future

In addition to our comprehensive suite of benefits, we commit to helping our employees achieve their personal and professional best through our internal initiatives listed below:

Grow & Succeed

Ingenuity is a vital company value and a key component for a high-performing workforce. Our employees are learners, innovators and original thinkers. We use our experience, imagination and wisdom to deliver tangible, positive outcomes. Through Grow & Succeed, employees find opportunities for training, mentorship and job aids to invest in their professional growth.

Welcome Wellbeing

Beacon encourages a healthy work/life balance. Our mental and physical health are intrinsically connected, and to achieve our personal best we need the tools to take care of both. This initiative focuses on factors such as financial and legal support, physical health, stress management and mental health to maximize employee wellbeing. Our employees are our greatest resource, and encouraging them to take care of themselves is just another way we live out our mission of helping people live their lives to the fullest potential.

Reduce Risk

Integrity is one of Beacon’s deeply rooted core values, and our Reduce Risk pillar supports this value by keeping Beacon employees at the forefront of technology changes, and risks as well as equipped for any compliance and ethical threats, encouraging us to operate ethically at all times. As a business dedicated to serving our members with excellence, while handling their most sensitive information, we work with integrity, earning and maintaining trust—we don't take this responsibility lightly and have high standards and measures to secure the safety of our employees and our members.

Thought Leadership and Expertise

Beacon’s singular focus on behavioral health gives us clear insight into what works today and how care is changing for the future. As industry thought leaders, we’re committed to sharing our insights on the latest information, trends, and best practices in behavioral health through our expert-driven, employee-authored blog Beacon Lens and our website’s Expertise section, where you can explore the latest developments in autism, mental health, substance use disorder, recovery, and workplace health programs and initiatives.

Community Involvement

What is BEAM

Beacon Employees Advancing our Mission, BEAM, provides all team members with opportunities to give back to their local communities. Whether Beacon employees are participating in a company-wide initiative like the Awesome Beacon Bike Ride or working together in smaller groups through one of our 70 locations’ Employee Activity Committees, we make sure to provide employees with paid time off to give back. Operation BEAM supports all employee volunteer and advocacy work happening around the company.

BEAM Activities

BEAM allows our employees to continue the impressive work they’re already doing each day, and it energizes our volunteer efforts across the company by encouraging more employee participation.

NAMIWALKS: For years, Beacon employees across the U.S. participate in yearly NAMIWalks events to raise money and awareness to support their local and regional National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI).

FUNDRAISING: There are no limits to the causes in need of support. Whether it be children in need, the local food bank, or military families who have lost a loved one serving the country, Beacon employees advocate on the behalf of those who need it most.
